Greetings from another red beard! (Well, at least a red goatee) I heartily approve of your avatar and your state. My dad pastored a church in Johnson City for seven years and two of my sisters hail from that great state. It's good to have you here brother, I look forward to many fruitful conversations!

It is God that multiplies our sorrows.... God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry

Hi James, my wife and I sure love your part of the state. Can't wait to get back down there. Welcome to the PB.
